switching to r00t

Hello, everybody.

I am writing a program that needs to switch to user r00t at runtime. Is
this possible at all? In UNIX you can switch from r00t to any other user
with setuid() , however, I want the other way around. I have seen
password verification with the installation of the developer tools. Any
clues on my problem?

Thank you for your time!

Sincerely,

Nick
